No matter what time of year it is, I keep a tub of lavender oil balm on my bedside table to help improve my sleep. So when Bellamer Botanical Skin Care’s Hydration Plus For Face & Neck came across my desk, a tub infused with lavender, I was interested in knowing more about how it could benefit my skin. Here’s my review.

According to the Bellamer website, lavender, along with the other ingredients contained in this product, frankincense, and chamomile, help to remove excess fluid that causes sagging and puffiness. While it’s advised you use the Bellamer Botanical Skin Care Hydration Plus For Face & Neck morning and night as a hydrating treatment, I’ve been using it as a night-time only treatment. I’m quite fussy about what I put on my face in general, and especially in the morning, underneath my makeup.
The jar is also infused with shea butter and jojoba oil that helps relieve dry skin. After cleansing at night, I slathered on a thick layer of the balm and slept in it. I woke up to much brighter and clearer skin. Since it contains natural plant butter it needs to be stored below 30 degrees, so it’s one of those products that needs to be kept in the fridge in summer. There are certain essential oils that are not recommended using during pregnancy and breastfeeding, so it’s best to check with your GP before using it.
